John Wall brought a gun? I don't recall him having any gun incident in the NBA Are you referring to the Gilbert Arenas/Javaris Crittenton locker room incident with Washington
This is making its rounds both here and the national media. We've been getting leaks for over a year now on how poorly run this organization is. We heard it from people close to Evan Mobley apparently. Draft prospects not wanting to come here. People not wanting Wemby to come here. That it's a shitshow. At some point we have to start realizing that this is what this organization is. John Wall was specifically talking about KPj when he said "let him earn it". As a 1st overall pick he knows that high draft picks are given starters spots. But fringe 1st rounders arent. Kevin Martin Sr wanting his son out of here. I've said it before, Jabari Smith will not deal with this. He will leave. And right now he's probably our 2nd most important player behind Sengun. "wait until next year after this upcoming draft" people might be in for a huge shock when we realize we aren't nearly as good as they think we'll be. Because this thing is rotten. Jalen getting here late? Kevin freaking Porter coming in late? Couple of wannabe Kobe and wannabe Harden scrubs that couldn't hit the broadside of a barn right now? Wemby ain't fixing this fellas.
Who are these people thinking Wemby will "fix this"? Or is that the new "narrative" people are hanging onto? I think the majority of sane people are looking for an improvement next year and the successive years. I'm not expecting them to be a 50-win team in a year (but I'll take it!). I'd be happy with an improvement of 5-10 games next year maybe to a 30-35 win team. I'm not expecting a ton from a re-building/tanking/whatever you want team other than a good draft and accruing assets to be better in the future. Where I'll start to lose faith is if, during this, I start seeing a bunch of penny-pinching and absolute mismanagement of assets, the draft, players, etc. where you just start wondering what the hell is going on Kind of like the Texans. And you scared the hell out of me with that "Kevin Martin Sr".
Granato says Tilman was PISSED after we lost to San Antonio at home. FWIW, he has been consistently saying that Tilman is not ok with tanking. If we lose tonight to Charlotte, let’s see what happens. Because if Silas is still around, and Tilman doesn’t step in and fire him, then Tilman is straight up lying.
Pffffft. We been the worst two years, nearing three in a row, i doubt tilman is against tanking. Tilman wised up, he's not taking interviews to tell the fans his thought process to get railed on, he has his man Stone dictate the orders to the yes man silas. This insider or whatever is just the rockets doing media damage control.
Tilman is a liar. It is known. I don't buy that from Granato. Have had friends and associates work for companies that have done work for him and a great reputation....he does not have. Tilman is on board with the tank. My bigger issue is his tendency to run this team like he runs his business. Mob boss mentality. Hire dumb loyal people who fear you and won't talk back. He's not the type of guy who hires people smarter than him.
look at how much Giddey has improved his shooting….26% from 3 and 71% from the line last year to 34% from 3 and 81% at the line so far this season…I’m sure Chip had a lot to do with it Do u think this organization is making moves like that? I don’t
Jalen Green’s jumper looks weird AF How can u be consistent with this? Rockets should’ve been the one making the call for someone like Chip Engelland.
I mean of course the Rockets are going to deny they are tanking, if they ever admit it Silver might heavily fine the team or even worse take away draft picks and if they need someone to take the blame for it they'll fire Silas to show how 'mad' they are that the team has been losing. They might have to fire him anyway because I doubt the players have much trust him.
Ya they have to lie, and would be stupid not to. Every once in a while you need to get stuff out about owner being upset, even if it’s obviously bs
John Wall needs to shut the hell up! He got paid more than 95% of the population in this country. He didn't even get a pay cut. We don't owe his ass anything. Not like the guy is dominating the league right now in L.A. 100% Under achiever! The only thing comcerning about that conversation is the kid we drafted who supposedly has a crazy work ethic and "Kobe mentality" not focused 100% on basketball and doing things he's not supposed to?
Why the F is John Wall even interested in talking about what's going on with the Houston Rockets? Get healthy and be a consistent Clipper. Focus on trying to win a championship.
wall is a chucker and a loser its all he has every been. He has never been on a team that even won 50 games and he played all his career in the East when it was god awful. I could care less what his opinion on anything is
I'm not disagreeing with all you said buy I certainly will disagree with some stuff. Right now, now way is Jabari more important the jalen. uI think Kmart wanted his son out bc he didn't think he was going to get playing time. Correct me if I am wrong but ever since then, we have not heard anything from that camp about a trade. You can't lump green and kpj in the same bucket and I think kpjs issue is misuse. Now it could very well be that he refuses to play his ideal role but I think that is more on the coaching gm. Lastly I'm not taking John wall at his word for everything. The guy was toxic with the wizards too. And no way in hell am I starting old ass wall over young players I am trying to build around. I am sure that hurt his ego. Bottom line is even on merit alone I might start kpj over wall that's how sucky I think he is
I wonder if Silas realises just how much worse he looks, if that first comment has any truth to it. I'd confidently say he has no clue whatsoever.
